Today, as you sit around the table and prepare to indulge in
the annual favorites - sweet potatoes with marshmallows, mashed potatoes with
extra butter, cornbread sausage stuffing, pumpkin pie, and of course the crème de
la crème , turkey – I hope you take time to consider what it really means to
give thanks.
Being thankful is not reserved for a particular Thursday in
November. Nor is it just something you think about before a meal, or maybe at
the end of the day. Gratitude should be reflected in the way you think, act, and react, everyday.
In my life I am loved by so many wonderful people. I have
always had more than what I needed. And I’ve never had more than I could
handle. I know I haven’t earned even half of the blessing in my life, which
leads me to believe that there is someone to be thankful to.
"Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love
endures forever." Psalm 107:1
Even when I face struggles, I choose to give thanks continually.
May your day be filled with joy as you celebrate with loved ones.
Happy Thanksgiving friend! I am so thankful for our friendship and for you! Love you!

great reminder! thanks means more when things are tough... It's way easier to be thankful when things are going you're way but it doesn't mean as much.
ReplyDeleteI need that reminder a lot! Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving!
